    show backups increasing in size

    It'd be nice to have something to highlight which backups are changing the most and consuming space in the datastore. I've seen a few forum posts that discuss this already and I understand the limitations of processing this on-demand. Regardless of the deduplication, it'd be nice if there was...

    Deduplication question

    [Feature Request] Ability to browse QEMU backups

    Hello, Giving PBS a try and liking it so far - However one sticking point for me is the ability to download files from the backups. This is possible for LXC containers via the PBS interface, however looking at VMs, I don't get the option. Looking at the PVE interface however, I notice that...

    VM killed on USB Detach

    Hi all I have a keyboard and mouse attached to a USB switcher. The underlying devices are visible to my host so I pass them through to a VM and it all works fine If I switch away from the host though, the USB devices detach and it seems QEMU instantly kills the VM. I'm taking this as a QEMU...

    GPU Passthrough - not displaying boot sequence

    Hi All I've been playing around with GPU passthrough recently and whilst I've got it working - I only ever get anything displayed once the guest OS has booted and the driver has loaded.

    pveproxy for multiple clusters?

    Hi all just wondering if you have any plans at all for something like a standalone version of pveproxy that would allow you to manage multiple clusters from one web interface? So for example, you build out cluster1 - any of those nodes can be used to manage that cluster no problem. You the...

    LXC Cores vs CPU Limit

    Hi Guys I noticed recently that my LXC containers have a new option called "Cores". I previously had an LXC container configured with a CPU limit of 1 on a 4 core box and the end result was that the workload was spread across all cores but each one was loaded at about 25% - This resulted in...

    CPU usage polling via API

    Hi Guys I'm looking at making some scripts that give me stats of my containers but I'm having difficulty getting CPU usage for it via the API. When looking at a container's status via the API, I suspect the "cpu" value should represent the percentage of CPU its using against its allocation...
